e-FIT - Formal Independent Testing
for Web Sites
A web site that functions slowly or ineptly can damage business.
Visitors give up. The company's reputation or first chance to
make a good impression is lost and gone.
Your web site may be a complex
database type with advanced search facilities, an on-line e-commerce
ordering site with a catalogue of products or services, or simply
a marketing tool. Paragon's eFITness Programme promises that
a web site is FIT for visitors to access, navigate and use according
to its intended function. FIT to use, FIT to work, FIT to grow.
Potential Technical Problem Areas
If a web site is deployed without taking full account of a variety
of hardware, operating systems and browsers, problems are likely.
Even a variation in the browser version, can cause mutations
to occur on the screen display.
Has your Web Site been Independently
Tested?
Has everything possible been done to optimise the size of images,
to check the meta tags, the links, whether pages will print easily?
Does its structure immediately make sense to the first time visitor?
Thorough testing of a web site can be complex and time-consuming
and, more often than not, is simply not done.
Overall Benefits of Independent Testing
Reputation is preserved: For new contacts - prospective customers
- a smoothly running web site will immediately inspire confidence
in the organisation or company.
Prevention of lost sales: A customer could be lost at the first
fence, impatiently waiting - or rather, not waiting - for pages
to load on the screen. Or, completion of an order could be foiled
if an order entry screen (form) fails to work. Imagine this
happening several times and a picture of financial loss emerges.
Independent Verification: e-FIT provides a fresh, independent
pair of eyes that can spot errors. Despite repeated checks,
functional errors are often missed by the creators of a site.
Security: Assured security of a web site is generally regarded
as of extreme importance. e-FIT seeks to ensure effective operation
of appropriate firewalls, encryption, password controls and virus
protection.
